[GNC] credit account negative balance increases with payment

[R Losey]

But it's not just the split transaction; EVERY charge is decreasing the
balance. It's like it thinks there was some huge overpayment and every
charge is reducing that balance.

The attachment you provided doesn't have any payments, but every charge
looks like mine. (I did discover that I have the Reverse Balanced Accounts
set for credit cards; this must be the default, as I've never changed it).
If this is off for you, the screenshot makes sense.
